When I was 8 I learnt some judo. I was told "Judo equalises things. You can use the size of a larger opponent to beat them." And we all managed to throw the huge instructor with ease.

So, if that is true, how come the judo fights in the Olympics are in weight classes?

Why do they lie to little kids like that? It's total bollocks!
